CSS Not Applying

I have a table with CSS, but it doesn't seem to be applying. I am trying to set the column widths, set the headers on a left align and have a border around the table. None of this seems to be happening.

<style type=”text/css”>
.viewpost {
    border: 1.5px solid #367588;
    background-color: #333;
    margin-bottom:25px;
}

.viewpost1 {
    border: 1.5px solid #367588;
    background-color: #333;
    line-height:100px;
    vertical-align:top;
    margin-left:10px;
}

table{
    align:center;
	border: 1px solid black;
    table-layout: fixed;
    width: 930px;
}

th, td {
    border: 1px solid black;
    overflow: hidden;
    width: 150px;
}
</style>

Open in new window

if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
    		// output data of each row
  			echo '<table>';
				echo "<thead>";//open teùable headers
				echo "<tr><th>Record ID</th>
				<th>Customer</th>
				<th>Site</th>
				<th>User Name</th>
				<th>Password</th>
				<th>Date Added</th></tr>";
				echo "</thead>";//close headers row
				echo "<tbody>";//open table body
    		while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
				echo "<tr class='viewpost'>";
  			if(!empty($row['recordId'])) {
      			echo '<td>' . $row['recordId'] . '</td>';
    			}
					else
					{
      			echo '<td>NA</td>';
					}
  			if(!empty($row['recordCust'])) {
      			echo '<td>' . $row['recordCust'] . '</td>';
    			}
					else
					{
      			echo '<td>NA</td>';
					}
  			if(!empty($row['recordSite'])) {
      			echo '<td>' . $row['recordSite'] . '</td>';
   	 			}
					else
					{
      			echo '<td>NA</td>';
					}
    		if(!empty($row['recordUser'])) {
      			echo '<td>' . $row['recordUser'] . '</td>';
   	 			}
					else
					{
      			echo '<td>NA</td>';
					}
			if(!empty($row['recordPass'])) {
      			echo '<td>' . $row['recordPass'] . '</td>';
   	 			}
					else
					{
      			echo '<td>NA</td>';
					}
			if(!empty($row['recordDateAdded'])) {
      			echo '<td>' . $row['recordDateAdded'] . '</td>';
   	 			}			
					else
					{
      			echo '<td>NA</td>';
					}
					echo "</tr>"; //closing row
				}
  			echo '</tbody>';
  			echo '</table>';

Following are the possible issues:

1. Your browser is continuing to use the cache version of this html(php) page.
- Try force refresh (Ctrl + F5) a few times.

2. There might be a path error within the html file.
- Open the web page in browser and view source. Click on the css file and check if the css is able to open or not. If not, you will have to fix the path.

3. If you are using this in a cloud like app engine or heroku, you need to ensure that the static files are set properly.

This applies the styling correctly according to my tests.
